This code contains four applications to use in oTree [Chen2016].
The demo app based on this code is available at Heroku.
1. minimum: a bare example how to use Django Channels in oTree projects
to build a very simple real effort task (subtracting random number from X).
realefforttask: a set of four different real effort tasks:
- summing up N numbers [Niederle2007].
- finding max of two matrices [Schram2017].
- decoding task [Erkal2011].
- counting 0s in a matrix [Abeler2011].
This app also provides a platform for development one's own tasks using
TaskGenerator class from ret_functions module located in realefforttask app folder.
To use it, create a child of TaskGenerator class in ret_functions module, and reference it
in settings.py configuration for your app.
3. auctionone - a gift-exchange game [Fehr1993] where employers hire workers in the
open auction, and workers reciprocate their salary in a subsequent real effort task stage.
4. double_auction - a trading platform where buyers and sellers can
trade their goods by posting bids (for buyers) and asks (for sellers) [Smith1962].
